Egg dye question

posted 5th Mar
I took my daughter to build-a-bear over the weekend and they gave her a free Easter egg dying kit. We don't really celebrate Easter so I am trying to figure out other things that can be done with it. It came with glitter tubes, stickers, and dye tablets. What else can I use the dye for? Is it just the same thing as food coloring? Any creative ideas?

Thanks!

This is a good idea but I would have to wait until after all the snow clears up! I was thinking about something to do for the weekend. Maybe an indoor activity?

Just coloring eggs is fun. You can do spring time exercises.. They have all sorts of ways to dye the eggs. This year I think we will try out the vegetable dyes.

I have no problem doing this but I don't really get the point? Even if we do call them Easter eggs as I have no problem with her embracing other holidays it's just not a tradition I understand. It just seems like a waste of eggs lol.

lol you hard boil the eggs first and can eat them afterwards. Great for egg salad sandwichs

Some color might leak into the white but it isn't harmful at all.

That's what I figure. We don't like hard boiled eggs enough to eat a dozen just like that, but I could make egg salad.

Thanks everyone. Guess we'll be doing egg dying soon.

You can make snow " paint pens" with either squirt bottles or spray bottles. Just fill a bottle with water and the tablets then let her go color the snow.   maybe use those old fashion ketchup bottles?
